Ok just about the same time as one great response came in speaking of panel voltage meters from eBay I realized the same. While Trimetric and the like are excellent additions to any system, I was metering the power terminals from the panels & then running outside to the batt bay and metering the batt posts.
So I ordered 2 of these
I assume it is "legal" & safe to tap into the controllers' terminals and mount one of them on the wall next to it. I would like to tap the other on the batt posts but would very much like to run a length of wire back inside the camper to also mount the battery mon panel on the wall for frequent viewing.
Do I need to consider wire size to do this or just get a similar size and feed it through appropriately? Thanks again for all the great help.
